Reaction was to

undergo an IV push injection.

IV push injections are safer than IV drips. If a rare adverse reaction was to occur, the practitioner controlling the injection is able to detect untoward effects immediately and respond accordingly.

Should it not be "were" in "a rare adverse reaction was/ were...."?

Is it a subjunctive or conditional?

Thanks
